I am interested in using a 'novel' simulation of neuron control for a 6
legged robot. While I could (and probably will) simulate the environment, I
am looking for a self-learning walker to be physically implemented at some
point. Therefore I am looking for a simple (i.e. cheap! 8-) ) 6 leg robot.
It could be a radio-controlled thing, and sensors are not necessary
(provided that there is some feedback about the leg position). Told you it
was novel!

I am interested in how effective a bot could be with little more input than
how much progress it is making - i.e. the simplest level of neural
behaviour, such as in Amoeba etc. 

NOTE: It would be appreciated if only British (UK) contacts for suppliers
etc were given if possible.

Yours Mike Reddy
